A/N: Written for primeval100 Writer's Challenge.


Lunchbox packed, Mary sits down with a cuppa, lifts up the newspaper only to find page 8 with large chunk missing, again.

"Ben! Get down here right now."

Her son appears, standing sheepishly by the kitchen door, hands behind his back.

"Why?"

He holds out a book - upon opening she sees page after page of cuttings, print-outs from forums on "sightings," not UFO's but beasts. Handwriting in the margin, Latin names she vaguely recognises from books she used to buy him – dinosaurs! She sighs and continues to the final two-page spread, council planning permission and map with position circled.
